Kevin Spacey: Netflix halts House of Cards production

Production of the sixth season of Netflix series House of Cards has been suspended following sexual assault allegations against actor Kevin Spacey. The decision to end House of Cards was announced in a joint statement by Netflix and Media Rights Capital, a production company that makes the series. "MRC and Netflix have decided to suspend production on House of Cards season six, until further notice, to give us time to review the current situation and to address any concerns of our cast and crew." Spacey, who is also executive director of House of Cards, said he owed Rapp, now 46, a "Sincere apology" for what he said would have been "Deeply inappropriate drunken behaviour". House of Cards, which is based on a BBC programme, first debuted in 2013.
